Dear ASPR Stakeholders, 
 
This EMS Week, we would like to express our sincerest appreciation to all our EMS partners and all emergency personnel across the country serving on the frontlines. 
 
ASPR recognizes your service and the sacrifices made every day, especially during this unprecedented  time. We salute you, the true heroes, for your commitment to saving lives and improving preparedness, response and recovery in our communities.
 
As we continue the fight and face stressors unique to the COVID-19 pandemic, we encourage you to utilize the latest support resources and tools from the FEMA Healthcare Resiliency Taskforce’s Prehospital (EMS/911) Team. Thank you for all your hard work and your continued commitment to keeping America safe!
